No. It's not because it's harder, it's not really any more difficult than it used to be, it's just different. We stopped caring about jailbreaks because Apple implemented everything we wanted in the first place.

I was going to add that Apple made dev certs free, so that's one less reason to jailbreak

Free dev certs are still really limited. I've always kept a paid one, even though to date I've only released 3 apps. You get a lot more flexibility with a paid one. For example, you can now sideload applications (no longer need to rebuild from source), but with a free cert you have to reinstall every 7 days, with a paid one its once a year
